Engineers train to troubleshoot

Adam Webb, a facility controls systems engineer at the aerodynamic and propulsion test unit at Arnold Air Force Base, and other engineers work on a troubleshooting exercise during a class April 18 at the University of Tennessee Space Institute on programming and troubleshooting General Electric programmable logic controllers. AEDC Test Operations and Sustainment contractor, National Aerospace Solutions provided the week-long technical training course aimed at new instrumentation, data and controls engineers. The PLCs are used across all mission areas to control test and plant systems. (U.S. Air Force photo by Jill Pickett)
